Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge

The Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge is located between Xiaguan in Gulou District and Qiaobei in Pukou District of Nanjing. It is the first double-deck railway and highway bridge on the Yangtze River designed and built by China. It is of great significance in the history of bridges in China and the world. It is an important achievement of China's economic construction in the 1960s and an important milestone in China's bridge construction. It has great economic, political and strategic significance and is known as the "Bridge of Reputation".

It was a holiday and the evening rush hour, so the bridge was packed with people. Many people had abandoned their bikes on the approach bridge, but I still pushed my bike up the bridge, thinking I could just slide down when I got off the bridge. But there were too many people going up and down, so I had to walk slowly.

No matter how many times the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge has been renovated, the moments it carries will never be forgotten. The night view of the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge is also very good. Due to the schedule and physical strength, I did not come to see it again. I hope I can have the opportunity to experience it again next time.

It is the first double-deck railway and highway bridge on the Yangtze River designed and built by China. It has important significance in the history of bridges in China and even in the world.

When I went there in October 2018, it was closed for maintenance. I was unable to see its majesty on the bridge, and could only look at it from afar from the Yuejiang Tower. This is also a great regret for me. Because it occupies a certain place in the hearts of our generation. I still remember it when I was in elementary school: In the early morning, I came to the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge. Today's weather is particularly good, with white clouds floating in the blue sky. The bridge looks very magnificent under the bright sunshine. In the rolling river, 9 huge piers firmly support the bridge body. . . . . . .

The Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge is a very old bridge. We learned about it in our primary school Chinese textbooks. The upper deck is for cars and the lower deck is for trains. It is really spectacular to be there in person!

The Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge is a landmark of Nanjing and is very well-known. The bridge was built in the 1960s and facilitated traffic on both sides of the river. The bridgehead and relief sculptures here are very interesting, but it seems to be under repair recently.

I saw the picture a long time ago and always wanted to see it with my own eyes one day. Sitting in the car, I could only see the scenery on both sides of the bridge. The bridge is very long and very spectacular.

One of the must-see tourist spots in Nanjing. Friends who are interested can go and have a look.

The Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge is the first double-deck railway and highway bridge designed and built independently in New China, and it carries the feelings and memories of several generations.

I originally planned to walk to the middle of the bridge to take pictures, but the weather was too hot, so I returned to the bridge head and took a taxi and circled the bridge.

When I was a child, my impression of the Yangtze River Bridge was that it was a bridgehead. The Yangtze River Bridge began to be renovated around 2016 and reopened at the end of 2018.

During this trip to Nanjing, I went to the Yangtze River Bridge to fulfill my mother's wish. The Qinhuai River and other places did not particularly attract me.

The Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge is a mark and symbol of generations. It is the second dual-use bridge for road and rail built on the Yangtze River in New China. All the designs and constructions were completed by the Chinese themselves. To be honest, it was not easy in that era. You can come to Nanjing to see it and witness the spirit and power of that era.

The old building at that time, I was particularly attracted to this place because of an old black and white photo of my parents. I took a photo and sent it to my parents

The Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge was also built at the peak of its time. It's okay to pass by and take a look.

The situation during the National Day in 2018: The Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge was closed for maintenance. No one was allowed to go up the bridge or the piers. One could only look up at the bridge from the construction site. The park ticket was 7 yuan. Since one could not go up the bridge, the 8 yuan viewing fee was not charged. In addition, if one wanted to see the Yangtze River, one had to go through the park and climb over the embankment to reach the Yangtze River. The Yangtze River is surrounded by farmland and is a wild Yangtze River, so one needs to pay attention to safety.



Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge, this attraction has been completely forgotten by people...

The bridge is still under repair and is not open to the public, but you can walk down the bridge and overlook the Yangtze River Bridge and the Yangtze River. The scenery along the way is another kind of beauty, which is more worth visiting than going up the bridge.

The picture shows the sunrise scene when the train passed the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge.

It was noon when we went there, with the sun shining brightly, and we walked along the bridge from one end to the other. That feeling... I won't mention it anymore. When you go there again, you only need to watch the scenery at the bridge head. Don't walk the whole way, it's very tiring, and it's not very safe with cars coming and going.

It is a landmark building that marks an epoch-making milestone in Chinese architecture. It is a dual-purpose railway and highway bridge that spans the Yangtze River from north to south, turning a natural barrier into a thoroughfare.

When searching online, many people commented that the night view of Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge is incredibly beautiful. You can walk on the bridge, and it takes about an hour to walk from the south bridgehead to the north bridgehead. I don't know if it's true or not, and I can't verify it myself. When I rode my bike to Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge with great enthusiasm, I saw that it was being rebuilt, and occasionally a train whizzed by.

The bridge is under repair now. I went to the riverside bridge from the small path. I didn't expect the scenery under the bridge to be so beautiful. The bridge built in the 1960s is still in use. I sincerely sighed how strong the sense of responsibility of the builders was!

When I finally saw the bridgehead of the main bridge and the iconic statue, I felt so relieved that I had finally arrived.

Looking back at the road I came from, and seeing the secondary bridge extending out at the bend, the scene is indeed spectacular. I walked through it step by step.

The entrance is on the opposite side, and there is no separate crosswalk for pedestrians to cross. You can only cross carefully in the rolling traffic.

Don't go now, the bridge is under repair and will not be completed until October or November. We took bus No. 12 to go there, but the bridge was under construction 🚧, so we were not allowed to go on the bridge, and we didn't see the Yangtze River.

The Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge is a monument. When it was built, it was quite a sensation. The ancient Chinese stone arch bridge and the modern Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge are known as "the only great building in Nanjing in the 20th century that can be compared with the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum". It was completed and opened to traffic in 1968. The three red flags on the bridgehead and the five-person sculptures representing workers, farmers, businessmen, students and soldiers, the reliefs around the bridge body that read "Long live the great unity of the people of the world", and the huge quotations on the bridge pillars that stand tall.

A mark of the times is the first double-deck railway and highway bridge on the Yangtze River designed and built by China.

In the history of bridge construction in China, this is the most special bridge among all the bridges along the Yangtze River. If it is taken out alone, it should definitely be a landmark in Nanjing. But unfortunately, although its historical significance and cultural relic value continue to grow with the years, the banks of the bridge are still various messy industrial areas and port areas that have grown wildly naturally. In 2010, I rode a bicycle borrowed from a youth hostel. It was dark all the way. Relying on the mobile phone map that was not particularly easy to use, I actually successfully found the road to the bottom of the bridge. Feel the momentum of the train passing under the bridge. On the contrary, the next day, I looked out from the Yuejiang Tower, ignoring the dirt and mess nearby, and the viewing experience was better. I don’t know if there have been some plans from a tourism perspective in recent years to truly develop the Yangtze River Bridge into a scene in Nanjing.

A place that is shocking both from a distance and up close, a symbol of that era in China, a must-see

I took the elevator from the Yangtze River Bridge Park directly to the bridge. Only when you are on the bridge in person can you feel the magnificence of the bridge and the Yangtze River. The wind on the bridge was particularly strong at that time. Moreover, the bridge has been built for so long, and it is still standing. The designers and builders of that year were really great.

The Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge is located between Xiaguan in Gulou District and Qiaobei in Pukou District of Nanjing. It is the first double-deck railway and highway bridge on the Yangtze River designed and built by China. It is of great significance in the history of bridges in China and even in the world. It is an important achievement of China's economic construction in the 1960s and an important milestone in China's bridge construction. It has great economic, political and strategic significance and is known as the "Bridge of Reputation".

The Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge is a key transportation hub in eastern China. The upper deck is a highway bridge, 4,589 meters long, with a 15-meter-wide carriageway that can accommodate four large cars running in parallel. There are sidewalks more than 2 meters wide on both sides, connecting cross-river highways such as National Highway 104 and National Highway 312. It is one of the main roads connecting Nanjing Jiangbei New District with the main city of Jiangnan. The lower deck is a double-track railway bridge with a width of 14 meters and a total length of 6,772 meters. It connects the Jinpu Railway and the Shanghai-Nanjing Railway. It is the key point and lifeline of the country's north-south transportation. The bridge consists of two parts: the main bridge and the approach bridge. The main bridge has 9 piers and 10 spans, is 1,576 meters long, and has a maximum span of 160 meters. The navigation clearance width is 120 meters, and the navigation clearance height under the bridge is 24 meters above the designed maximum navigation water level, which can accommodate 5,000-ton ocean-going vessels.

The bridge is undergoing maintenance during this period and is closed to visitors and all motor vehicles except trains are prohibited from passing through.

The Yangtze River Bridge is just opposite, and you can overlook it from the Yuejiang Tower.

The Yangtze River Bridge is really long, and it takes quite a while to walk the entire length of it.

If possible, when you come to Nanjing, you must walk along the bridge to feel its history and its greatness.

If it wasn't closed for maintenance, I would definitely go up the bridge and walk from the north end of the Yangtze River to the south end. My friend kept talking about it, and at this moment, he was moved that he had finally set foot on the land north of the Yangtze River.

The Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge was closed for maintenance at 22:00 on October 28, 2016, which took 27 months. It is still under repair and is not open to traffic.

The elevator is not very good. You need to pay for the ticket to enter the park. After going up, you can take some photos and look at the Yangtze River.

A must-visit place when you come to Nanjing! Although I couldn't go up because of maintenance, I was shocked to walk under the bridge! ! Looking at the river and listening to the train whizzing by, it was really impressive

Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge is under repair. When you arrive, you will see "Farewell, my bridge". Please be advised. Don't go there. You can go to the Third Yangtze River Bridge to take a look.

I was sweating all over, but the view after reaching the top was worth it.

The bridge was under construction when I went there, so I couldn't go up there. It was a pity! The view of the sunset by the river was still beautiful!

I took a photo of the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge from afar on the Yuejiang Tower, but it's not very clear.

It is the first double-deck railway and highway bridge on the Yangtze River designed and built by China, and is of great significance in the history of Chinese bridges.

As children born in the 1980s, we all learned the text about the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge in Chinese language class in primary school, so we came here with a little nostalgic feeling and we liked it.

Take the bus to the Bridge Park and take the elevator to the tower to take photos. The ticket price is 6 yuan or 8 yuan. I forgot. I personally feel that the scenery under the bridge is more beautiful. You can see the scenery on both sides of the river along the small river of the Pagoda Bridge.

I once stood by the bridge in 2007 and I remember being blown silly by the strong river wind. This time I watched it from afar when crossing the river at Pukou. The red flag on the bridge head stood proudly, the towering buildings in the distance, the tower cranes on the riverside, and the ships shuttling in the river, a vibrant scene.

Although I visited several scenic spots on this day, the one that impressed me the most was this one. Well, the quality is indeed worse than that of the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge.

Maybe I have seen too many beautiful bridges, so I am not very impressed with the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge. I think it is just average. If I hadn’t met an old friend, I would definitely not have gone there.

The location of the bridge is quite remote and desolate, and I personally think there is nothing to see.

We took a taxi to an intersection in front of the bridge, and the taxi driver said we couldn't go any further, so we started walking, even walking against the flow of traffic, for about 25 minutes.

We finally reached the best spot for taking photos, and then continued walking to the bridgehead. After seeing everything, we walked back to the city in 20 minutes. We were sweating all over, and when we got home, we found that our socks were worn out after walking all day.

Everyone must pay attention. If you want to visit the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge, you can't go up the approach bridge. First of all, there is no pedestrian path on the approach bridge, which is very dangerous. Secondly, the approach bridge is very long, and it takes about half an hour to walk to the bridge. So what is the correct way? ! Just take a car directly to the "Qiaotoubao Park". This park is built under the bridge. You can take the elevator directly to visit it in the park. Isn't it very high-end~~~

The first railway bridge built independently in China. You must go and see it!

The Yangtze River Bridge has a double-deck structure, with cars, pedestrians and bicycles on the upper deck and trains on the lower deck. The upper deck of the bridge is currently under repair, so it is no longer possible to walk up and experience what it feels like. It is said that when you walk to the middle, the bridge will vibrate violently as long as a train passes by. People with acrophobia should be cautious when going up the bridge. Now you can only see the view of the bridge from Nanbao Park under the bridge. There is an elevator in the park that can go up to the "viewing platform" on the 5th floor. Although it is called a viewing platform, the location is actually not good. It is impossible to take pictures of the magnificent bridge, and it costs 15 yuan, which is a rip-off.

The Yangtze River Bridge is a landmark building in Nanjing, a cultural symbol of Jiangsu, the glory of the Republic, and one of China's famous attractions. It is listed as one of the 48 New Jinling Scenic Spots. The Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge is located between Xiaguan in Gulou District and Qiaobei in Pukou District in Nanjing. It is the first double-deck railway and highway bridge on the Yangtze River designed and built by China. It is of great significance in the history of bridges in China and even in the history of bridges in the world. It is an important achievement of China's economic construction in the 1960s and an important milestone in China's bridge construction. It has great economic, political and strategic significance and is known as the "Qingqi Bridge".

This should be a must-see attraction when visiting Nanjing. I finally saw the white magnolia lamppost mentioned in the elementary school textbook.

In November, a week before the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge was closed, I visited this place that had appeared in textbooks. The bridge looks like a sleeping dragon spanning the Yangtze River.

This was once the first double-deck railway and highway bridge on the Yangtze River designed and built by China. It can be said to have epoch-making significance in the construction history of New China.

We climbed the observation deck to witness the magnificence of the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge. There are three red flags and statues of workers, peasants and soldiers on each side of the bridge. Cars can pass on the bridge and trains can pass under the bridge. The whole bridge is like a rainbow over the river. Lying on the railings of the bridge and looking down, the wide river surface is surging, and the spring water flows eastward. The river flows to the sea and never returns. It is really beautiful!

The bridgehead on the south side of the bridge can be reached by taking the elevator to the fourth floor of the bridge road. You can walk on the non-motorized lane of the bridge to the north side of the bridgehead. There are many non-motorized vehicles, so please pay attention to safety. The view of the bridge and the Yangtze River is spectacular, which is a rare experience. The elevator on the south side of the bridgehead can also go to the fifth floor observation deck, where you can take photos.

It reflects the spirit of independence and self-reliance of the Chinese people. It is worth a visit.

There is a bridge park under the bridge. Admission is free and the bridgehead is 8 yuan. You can book tickets online for a discount. Fortunately, we arrived at the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge on October 23, and the bridge was closed on the 28th. We will see it again in three years.

It is the key point and lifeline of the country's north-south transportation.

It took almost an hour to walk from the east side of the bridge to the west side. It was nice to see the scenery of the Yangtze River and walk more.

If you pass by by car, you will find it boring. In the end, I walked the whole way, which was quite tiring. The bridge is very noisy when walking, and it feels like the bridge is shaking every time a car passes by. I don't recommend walking.

Nanjing was already very hot in early June. In order to satisfy the little madman's request, we decided to go to the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge first under the scorching sun.

Haha, it feels pretty good to stroll on the Yangtze River Bridge.

There is a pair of composite bridgeheads in the north and south of the bridge, one pair of large bridgeheads and one pair of small bridgeheads. The tower of the big fort is 70 meters high and is shaped like "three red flags". There is an elevator in the fort leading to the park under the bridge, the railway bridge (not open to the public), the highway bridge and the platform on the top of the fort. [

The Yangtze River Bridge is a landmark building in Nanjing and one of China's famous attractions. It is listed as one of the New Jinling Forty-eight Scenic Spots.

In recent years, some people have argued that the low height of the Nanjing Bridge has seriously hampered the development of the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River and has become the biggest bottleneck restricting the development of the Yangtze River's golden waterway. They have called for the bridge to be demolished or renovated, and the debate is still ongoing.

Very historic and spectacular, a must-see when we go to Yangzhou

Sitting on the train, I just passed by in a hurry, but I was still fascinated by his style. The morning sun had just risen, and the cruise ships on the river began to get busy. The water waves were accompanied by the golden sunlight. It was so beautiful.

Although it was built at an earlier time, it still looks magnificent today and is a great project.

Nanbao Park under the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge + taking the elevator up costs 15 yuan. I don't think it's necessary, so I walked by myself. The electric cars on both sides are a bit dangerous~ But it's worth it to go up to the bridge to see the Yangtze River. At least I walked past the article "Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge" that I had learned in elementary school textbooks!

Speaking of this bridge, everyone must be familiar with it. There is a special text in elementary school Chinese that introduces it. Although it is not the first bridge across the Yangtze River, it is the first bridge designed and built by China across the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. It is also a spiritual symbol of the Chinese people's self-reliance after the Sino-Soviet split. Its significance far exceeds that of the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge and the Chongqing Yangtze River Bridge that were built earlier. Unfortunately, the stairs to the bridge are locked, and you can only pay to take the elevator to get to the bridge.

Compared with China's current high-level bridge-building technology, the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge is no longer outstanding.

I took the bus to Nanbao Park Station. When I got off the bus, I could see the entrance to Daqiao Park in front of me. I still don’t know if the two are the same place. . .

This bridge park charges admission before 6pm, and is free after 6pm, probably to facilitate citizens' exercise. When I arrived at this place, I didn't know where to see the distant view of the bridge. I wandered around for a long time and asked a citizen lady, who told me not to go to the plank road by the water at night because the river water rose and it was flooded. There is an entrance in front and a small pier where you can see the bridge. I felt that the view was still very good! There may be other places to see, but I didn't dare to go there again. It was a bit scary when the sky was completely dark, and there were no street lights.

I suggest that those who want to see the bridge should go before sunset in the evening, so that they can see the bridge in different colors. However, when I went there, the weather in Nanjing was terrible during the three days of the Dragon Boat Festival... I didn't see the sun for three days, but it was already very beautiful. I believe it would be even more beautiful with the sunset.

Actually, I went around the bridge again later. It was the citizen who told me where to go. If you go there, I suggest you ask the locals. It can really save a lot of time. But there is not much to see on the bridge. Just go up and feel it. There is also the elevator that can go directly to the bridgehead. I asked two people. One said it has been closed for a long time, and the other said it is closed at night. I don’t know which one is correct. . .

The first double-deck railway and highway bridge on the Yangtze River designed and built by China.

It has important significance in the history of bridges in China and even in the world, and is an important milestone in China's bridge construction.

The railings on both sides of the bridge are inlaid with various cast iron reliefs. There are two high bridgeheads at the north and south ends, which are one of the landmarks of Nanjing.

There is a bridge south fort park under the bridge. Every night, the lights on the bridge are on, and the whole bridge looks like a rainbow over the river, which is very spectacular.
